In it, www.minnpost.com reports that:

So, an open-records request by the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel led to the release of emails from Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walkers office showing that, contrary to his every public statement, he has been negotiating with Democrats and has offered concessions on most of their collective bargaining issues. Says the J-S story by Jason Stein and Patrick Marley: The e-mails showed ideas and counteroffers  panned Tuesday by state labor leaders and some Democrats  that were made by the Republican governor's aides and two Democrats as they sought some resolution that would allow Democrats to come back to Wisconsin. ...

Collective bargaining for wages and working conditions is non-negotiable. Removing our right to collective bargaining from Walker's "table" is the issue. Do it now, Walker. There is no such thing as changing the definition of collective bargaining.
